Among his many talents, it turns out that Sir Winston Churchill was also a pretty gifted artist.
A New Orleans antiques shop is selling an oil painting done by the onetime Prime Minister, which he gave to his friend President Franklin Roosevelt following the 1943 Casablanca Conference (via eXtravaganzi).
The painting, which depicts the Tower of Katoubia Mosque in Marrakesh and is the only painting Churchill is believed to have done during the war years, is being sold for $2.95 million by M.S. Rau Antiques.
It had a storied past before winding up in the auctioneer's halls.
According to eXtravaganzi:
The painting was passed from President Roosevelt to his son, Elliot, who sold it in 1950 to George W. Woodward, a Nebraska collector.
Woodward later sold it to author, movie producer, financier and art collector Norman G. Hickman, who served as associate producer of the Churchill-themed film, The Finest Hours in 1964. While in his possession, The Tower of Katoubia Mosque was exhibited at the New York Daily News building in January, 1965 and later at the Churchill Memorial in Fulton, Missouri during the Summer of 1970.
Upon Hickman’s death, it was passed to his second wife and then to her daughter, where it was stored in a closet for the past 15 years.

Suit aimed at Suarez grant is dismissed
A lawsuit attempting to block a grant program North Canton officials developed for Suarez Corp. Industries has been dismissed.
Andy Martin, a New York resident who is a longtime critic of Ben Suarez, and Richard E. Bierie, a North Canton resident, filed the suit in June after North Canton Council approved an occupancy grant for SCI and two partners. The lawsuit argued that council improperly passed the ordinance as an emergency action.
The occupancy grant is based on the amount of income tax paid by employees hired by SCI, Patriot Enterprises and LT Enterprises. The companies will make EdenPURE products in an old Hoover Co. warehouse at 334 Orchard St. NE.
SCI hopes to have the operation running within a month. Plans are to employ 300 people who will assemble EdenPURE space heaters, air purifiers, vacuums and other products. Suarez said he is moving the jobs from China back to the United States.
Council passed an ordinance for the occupancy grant at its June 6 meeting. The plan had been discussed at meetings in May, but was passed as an emergency.
After Martin and Bierie filed the lawsuit, council passed a new ordinance — minus an emergency clause — over the course of three meetings.
Because the new ordinance negated the lawsuit, Stark County Common Pleas Court Judge Charles E. Brown granted the dismissal.

Q2/2011 GROSS PROFIT MARGIN
Second quarter revenue was $45.1 million, an increase of $10.7 million or 31% from $34.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Approximately 65% of the sales in the second quarter were generated from China's domestic markets while approximately 35% were from export markets. The increase in revenues was a result of our expansion of sales in the China domestic market. We were also able to raise the average selling prices of our products during the quarter and maintained healthy profit margins across our product lines.
Our gross profit margin was approximately 29% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, which reflects blended profit margins between our higher margin China domestic sales and generally lower margins from export sales. Our gross profit margin is higher in the China domestic markets than export markets because products are generally sold at much higher prices on both the retail and wholesale levels in our industry in China. In addition, we continue to improve manufacturing efficiency through in-house production of key components of our products, thereby benefiting further from economies of scale as we also capture manufacture margins.
Q2/2011 OPERATING EXPENSES
SG&A expenses for the quarter were approximately $3.9 million, an increase of $1 million or 36% from $2.9 million for the same period of 2010, as expected, due to the hiring of additional direct sales staff and in-store product promoters to further our revenue growth in China. Our advertising costs remained minimal during the second quarter of 2011, as expected, because we use factory representatives and in-store promoters to promote our products directly to consumers at retail locations, which is a standard marketing practice in the small household appliances industry in China. The in-store promotion approach is highly effective in marketing products directly to consumers in the unique Chinese retail environment as compared to traditional mass media advertising channels that may incur significant advertising expenses without enhancing sales. According to a survey in the 2010 China Small Electronics Market Research Report, approximately 60% of Chinese consumers surveyed purchased small household appliances as a result of direct product introduction from in-store product promoters. Like other established domestic brands in China, our in-store promoters market our products exclusively and directly to in-store customer traffic.

Sharp(R) Solar Powers Duke Energy Convention Center With 101kW Array
Sharp Electronics Corporation's Solar Energy Solutions Group, and its customer, Third Sun Solar, completed the largest downtown Cincinnati solar project to date -- a 101kW installation powering the Duke Energy Convention Center (DECC). The project is part of an aggressive conservation strategy by both the City of Cincinnati and the venue designed to make the 750,000 square-foot convention center a more attractive destination for environmentally conscious groups. The project was completed in time to power GovEnergy 2011, August 7-10 at the DECC.
The DECC, managed by Global Spectrum, was chosen by the City for its spacious rooftop to collect ample sunlight. A total of 324 220-watt Sharp ND-224UC1 and 105 235-watt Sharp NU-U240fl modules were combined with 42kW Sunny Tower inverters in a 429-panel array. The Sharp modules are popular for commercial applications such as the DECC because of their balance of size and weight to power and performance, as well as their 25-year warranty.
"The City of Cincinnati and Duke Energy Convention Center should be commended for their aggressive pursuit of clean energy with a clear understanding of the long-term economic and environmental benefits," said Eric Hafter, senior vice president, Sharp Solar Energy Solutions Group. "With nearly 50 years of experience in solar, we offer clients like Third Sun and the DECC peace of mind. Sharp stands behind our product and ensures our clients maximize their return on investment."
The installation is ideally positioned to receive 1,000 hours of sunlight annually, will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 57.9 metric tons and save about $10,000 in annual utility costs. The installation is scalable and will enable future expansion.
As with all municipal energy projects, local and federal support were critical, including funding through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). To receive ARRA funding, the solar modules had to be domestically manufactured -- a requirement satisfied by Sharp's Memphis, Tenn. production facility, which has been in operation since 2003 and has been expanded several times since opening. The energy services company Ameresco oversaw the project and worked collaboratively with all parties to bring the project to fruition.
"We look at a number of factors when we select solar modules for a project, including technical specifications, where modules are produced and the brand that stands behind them," said Gerald Kelley, communications director, Third Sun Solar. "Since Sharp's manufacturing facilities are right here in the United States, our clients were able to take advantage of federal funding, and we were able to work with a 'bankable' company that stands behind its product."
Third Sun Solar completed the installation of Sharp solar panels in an array area of 11,500 sq. ft. and a solar panel surface area of 7,500 sq. ft. despite unique challenges of this space. The DECC is booked year-round for events. At three stories tall, roof access is limited to a freight elevator and crane. The installation was further complicated by the start of the baseball season (the Cincinnati Reds play at the nearby Great American Ballpark). Third Sun Solar worked collaboratively with the facility management and City of Cincinnati to overcome these challenges and the process took just three weeks to completely power up.
"The Duke Energy Convention Center solar project is just the tip of the iceberg for our center's efforts with green initiatives," said DECC General Manager Ric Booth. "Our hope is to use this project to enhance our facility to national planners and to help 'grow' the solar panel site to double or triple the amount of panels in place on the roof of the center."

Flood Insurance and FEMA Leave a Local Woman Disheartened
Even those who were not directly affected by last year’s floods remember the images of the Warwick Mall besieged by a raging torrent, as well as the flood waters enveloping local streets and homes
The legacy of last year’s major deluge is still being keenly felt by many Rhode Islanders.
Kathy Zachirchuk of Cranston remembers it all too well. Her story is harrowing, but the damage done is more than to just material things.
On that Tuesday in late March, even though the temperature was in the mid-forties, the rain fell as though it were in the tropics. Both Zachirchuk and her elderly mother had been home sick that day when she noticed water seeping into her basement. She started her sump pump and nervously watched the rain fall. But the water in her basement rose swiftly, eventually taking the electricity and heat out, as well as the sump pump.
“I was getting really nervous, especially when I saw the water coming up my lawn,” Zachirchuk recounts. “It was rising around the cars in the driveway.”
She was able to move her car further up the lawn away from the approaching water, but by the time she was able to get to her mother’s car, it was already partially submerged and would not start.
“I called AAA,” Zachirchuk said, “but my street was already too badly flooded and they couldn’t even get close to me.” The car was totaled.
When she went back to check on the basement, she was horrified to find the water coming up the steps. Even if the sump pump had been working, it would not have been able to contend with the over six feet of water in her basement. The water eventually stopped rising at the third step from the first floor.
Zachirchuk and her mother were stuck inside the house for several days while the water receded. While the electricity was restored shortly after it was lost, the heat did not return for days.
The material loss was vast: hundreds of books, stored kitchenware and pottery, a washer and dryer, an oil burner and oil tank, the electrical wiring in the basement, and thousands of dollars worth of clothes that were stored in a recently finished cedar closet.
A FEMA inspector came to survey the loss. “The inspector was amazed by the damage, and said that we qualified for the highest possible claim,” Zachirchuk said.
FEMA later rejected her claim, stating that, because she had flood insurance, she could not "double-dip." They instructed her to finish consulting with her insurance company, and afterwards she could re-file her claim with them to be considered for either a grant or a loan.
Because the type of flood insurance she had was dwelling \insurance, and not content insurance, she was not eligible to receive compensation for much of her belongings.
Her insurance company partially reimbursed her for her central air conditioning unit, oil tank and oil burner, and electrical wiring in the basement. Nothing else was covered, and so she turned back to FEMA.
“FEMA was vague about whether I would get a grant or a loan. It was hours and hours of paperwork. It was very redundant and at the end of it I was so tired and disheartened,” Zachirchuk said.
Not too long after the paperwork was submitted, Zachirchuk’s mother took ill and was forced to go to the hospital. It was at that time that FEMA called Zachirchuk to request a re-inspection of the damage to her house.
“It was bad timing, considering how ill my mother was,” Zachirchuk said. She requested that they reschedule the inspection for another time. FEMA called her back shortly thereafter to reschedule again. Her mother was still slowly convalescing and Zachirchuk was still at the hospital with her. She asked once again to reschedule, and received a message on her cell phone from FEMA saying that they were dropping her claim.
“They left a message saying that they were canceling me because I didn’t meet with them,’” Zachirchuk said. “Even though I had explained to them twice that I would gladly meet with them once things had calmed down with my mother.”
FEMA stated that, if she wished to appeal, she would have to re-do all of the paperwork she had originally submitted. Exhausted emotionally and physically, she did not file the appeal.
“I couldn’t do it,” she said. “I didn’t have it in me to go through it all again. It was just too painful.”
Over a year later, she is still fixing the house. She is using a home equity loan that she had from before the flood to help fix her house, paying for it as she uses it. FEMA did reimburse her for a dehumidifier, but only partially because it was the wrong type of dehumidifier, according to their policy. They also stated that she could be reimbursed for an air purifier to eliminate the mold and mildew growth, but after she bought it, they said that they do not reimburse for air purifiers.
“Reimbursement is not as easy as it sounds,” said Zachirchuk. “There are games and if you’re not careful, you’ll wind up paying for a lot of it yourself.”
“This was a once-in-a-200 year flood,” said Zachirchuk’s friend, George Trudell, who is helping her rebuild. His residence, Riverview Terrace on Fordson Avenue in Cranston, was also flooded out during that time. “There was really nothing we could have done. (Zachirchuk’s) sump pump would have failed even if the power hadn’t gone out. There would have still been the same amount of damage. It was a perfect storm.”

the IQAir HealthPro Plus includes a granular activated-carbon adsorption
The IQAir HealthPro® Plus air purifier has been named the Best Air Purifier Overall by ConsumerSearch.com, adding to an already long list of first-place awards for the world's most advanced air purifier.
ConsumerSearch.com based its award on the ability of the IQAir HealthPro Plus to provide high-performance air filtration for large rooms, for its superior odor and chemical removal and for effectively removing allergens.
The ConsumerSearch.com editors also rated the IQAir HealthPro Plus the best choice because, unlike many air purifiers, it does not emit ozone and is endorsed by medical groups.
“We take pride in being recognized again as the very best air purifier available,” said Glory Dolphin, CEO of IQAir North America. “This award continues to validate the simple idea that an air purifier should remove even the smallest airborne particles while doing no harm – such as adding ozone or ionization into the environment.”
The IQAir HealthPro Plus combines four advanced filtration technologies to effectively remove more than 99.5 percent of airborne particles, including especially harmful ultrafine particles down to 0.003 microns in diameter – the smallest particles that exist. Ultrafine particles are the easiest to inhale and are more quickly absorbed by the lungs than are larger particles. Studies have shown they increase the risk of heart attacks, strokes and respiratory problems.
In addition, the IQAir HealthPro Plus includes a granular activated-carbon adsorption and pelletized chemisorption cell to remove odors and eliminate toxic chemicals, providing effective gas, chemical and odor control for people with chemical sensitivities.
This combination of advanced filtration makes the IQAir HealthPro Plus a true medical-grade air purification system that has been used around the world in hospitals. Combined with an ultra-quiet “fan-in-center” design, intuitive user controls and a built-in intelligent filter life, the IQAir HealthPro Plus is the leading choice in air purification.
